Karl,
Does that mean it will be used remotely with a high-speed connection? What on-line programs are available now?
I'd pay a subscription to get a suite of online software for my household.
I don't understand why nobody seems to see the huge profit that could be made in de-nerding computers and software. What could be better than a "white box," dumb machine with no software, just a modem? Kind of like a wash machine or stove. They could have revenue-earning pop-ups and advertising crawls custom tailored to the houshold that earned bonus points like a credit card. Or not!

Adobe in Photoshop freebie
Graphics software company will give away an online version of its popular
image-editing software; calls move an effort to boost ad revenues and gain
exposure.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Adobe will release a free online version of its
popular Photoshop image-editing software within six months, the company
said Thursday.
The online product will be a stripped-down version of the application that
has become an industry standard for graphics professionals.
The move is part of a larger effort by the company to bring key aspects of
its software portfolio - which includes audio, video and graphics
applications - online to draw advertising dollars and lure users into
buying software upgrades.
so we have free online office packages, free online spreadsheet software,
even a free online virtual computer and soon, free online Photoshop
